I think SSD is probably the most universal upgrade... Anyone can notice the speedy startup and program load times, whereas someone like me wouldn't be able to fully understand the benefits of fancy graphics cards etc. That doesn't mean I'm suggesting SSD because I personally would see a performance increase, but I am saying that SSD is beneficial to all users. I'm planning on going SSD myself soon so maybe I'll sing a different tune then, but I doubt it.

I doubt many can see the added benifit of a speedir startup. Most people will boot up as they do something, or don't shut down at all.

I do understand the benifits, but getting a tiny drive just for nthe sake of getting that small boost is a waste of cash. Why waste that money, when saving abit more on a 60 plus size drive will be a longer term item.

Especially when games are hitting HD graphics and 12Gig hard drive space.

Who has the time to be seriously into more than 2 games? Maybe I suffer from misconception but I doubt anybody would have that kind of time on their hands. So windows and the two games you play most on a 40 GB SSD... I think that would work out.
